The Lufthansa Airport Bus Service

Lufthansa Airport Buses

Enjoy comfort with the usual Lufthansa quality. For no matter which airline you are flying with, you can travel comfortably to and from the airport with the Lufthansa Airport Bus or the shuttle services operated by our cooperation partners.

Thanks to appropriate frequencies and minimal transfer times, the airport bus is a convenient way to catch your flight. Please note that for the airport bus route Bahrain – Dammam there are different rules relating to booking, check-in and baggage as well as different facilities on the bus. You will find detailed information about this on the route information page.

You will benefit from a service that is aligned precisely to the flight connections at our Frankfurt Airport hub. What is more, the Lufthansa Airport Bus covers the routes Porto – Vigo and Bahrain – Dammam. Thanks to appropriate frequencies and minimal transfer times, you can catch your flights with ease. Passengers who are not catching an onward flight with Lufthansa or who are booked on a flight with another airline can, of course, also purchase tickets for Lufthansa Airport Bus connections.

Please see the Lufthansa timetable for information on the arrival and departure times of the Lufthansa airport buses.

Booking

You can book tickets for the Lufthansa Airport Bus in exactly the same way as you would book a Lufthansa flight directly online at LH.com. To do this, simply enter Frankfurt as your departure airport and Kaiserslautern Central Station (Hbf. KLT), Saarbrucken (SDB) or Strasbourg (XER) as your destination airport. Alternatively, you can also book the Lufthansa Airport Bus through a Lufthansa agency.

Please note that, as for a flight, you need a ticket in advance for the Airport Bus. Unfortunately you cannot buy a ticket from the bus driver.

For the Lufthansa Airport Bus Bahrain – Dammam route, different rules apply to booking. Please read more about these on the route information page.

Check-in and Baggage

Travel on the airport bus from Kaiserslautern to Frankfurt Airport

Lufthansa airport bus passengers arriving at Frankfurt Airport can – like all other passengers – use the baggage check-in options that are available to them in Departure Hall A. Passengers who are only travelling with carry-on baggage can proceed directly to their departure gate.

After landing in Frankfurt passengers collect their baggage and pass through Customs. Please note that it is not possible for baggage to be transported automatically to Kaiserslautern because of customs regulations.

As usual collect your baggage after landing and after clearing customs take it with you to the Lufthansa Airport Bus
